Permission Groups allow you to define roles with specific access levels for organization management and project access. Assign members to groups to control what they can see and do.

​
Default Permission Groups

Boltz provides four default permission groups that cover common organizational roles:
GroupAdmin AccessProject AccessTypical Use
AdminManage Members, Permissions, and BillingOwnOrganization administrators and owners
All MembersNoneWriteStandard team members

​
Configuring Permission Groups

​
Viewing Group Members

Click the Members button next to any group to see which users are assigned to it. Click the Permissions button to modify a group’s access levels:
  1. Organization management - Select the admin access level
  2. Project access - Select the project access level
  3. Click Save to apply changes
Be careful when modifying or assigning the group permissions so that users only have access to appropriate content

​
Permission Group Assignments

Members can belong to multiple permission groups. When a member belongs to multiple groups, they receive the highest permission level from any of their groups. Example: A user in both “All Members” (Write) and “Scientist” (Own) groups will have Own access to projects.

​
Common Configurations

  • Principal Investigators → Admin + Scientist groups
  • Postdocs/Senior Scientists → Scientist group
  • Graduate Students → All Members group
  • External Collaborators → Viewer group
  • Department Heads → Admin group
  • Computational Chemists → Scientist group
  • Medicinal Chemists → All Members group
  • Management/Stakeholders → Viewer group
  • Account Managers → Admin group
  • Project Scientists → Scientist group
  • Clients (read-only access) → Viewer group

Best Practices

Principle of least privilege: Assign the minimum permissions necessary for each role. Start with restrictive access and expand as needed.
Use All Members as a baseline: Keep all users in the “All Members” group for basic platform access, then add specialized groups for elevated permissions.
Document your permission structure: For larger organizations, maintain documentation of which roles map to which permission groups.
